AI & Media Talent Acquisition Specialist - Recruitment

About Robot24

Robot24 is an AI-native media company building at the frontier of robotics, automation and artificial intelligence. We are not a traditional company. Every person we hire uses AI as a core part of how they work — not as an afterthought. We move fast, build from scratch and make decisions quickly.

About the Role

We are building AI-native teams across media, content, technology and creative production. We need a recruiter who has been inside this world — not someone who has read about it.

You will own hiring for roles that sit at the intersection of AI, media, content creation and technology. The people you hire are AI-native creators, engineers, analysts and strategists who use tools like Claude, Midjourney, Runway, ElevenLabs, Perplexity, n8n and Make as core parts of their daily output. You know what genuine AI fluency looks like — and you know immediately when someone has just added tools to a CV without ever building anything with them.

• This is a build role. There is no existing process. You will create it.
• What You Will Do
• Own end-to-end recruitment across AI, media, content, creative and technology functions

Source and assess candidates for highly specific AI-native roles — narrative producers, video creators, visual designers, distribution leads, growth and analytics specialists, intelligence researchers, and AI/ML engineers

• Evaluate candidates on actual AI tool fluency — verified through portfolios, workflow demos, work samples and practical outputs, never self-reported skills alone
• Build structured hiring pipelines and processes from scratch
• Partner directly with founders on every hire — no layers, no committees
• Define what AI-fluent means for each specific role and design screening criteria accordingly
• Maintain a live pipeline of AI-enabled media and tech talent
• Use AI tools yourself daily to source, screen and move faster

• Personally uses AI tools daily — ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, Runway, or equivalent — as part of your own workflow
